GDT: Round 2 Game 3 Baby! 6:30pm (rolls eyes) - Leafs vs Florida - The BWO presents Florida with the Leaf Nation Road Show

[saffronleaf]

triple shift nylander.

so sick of matthews and marner. don't even bench htem send them to the dressing room they're not even good for attitude purposes.

 

[Torontonian]

Our depth players have done their job so far tonight, have chipped in a few goals..

Maybe the $40 million forwards decide to show up to the game.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Beautiful Eurotrash goal

 

[A1LeafNation]

4th line winning this game for us!...all 2 of them.

 

[Stephen]

I still don't think the Leafs survive this game playing like this, but Woll could force them.

Our only hope is the supporting cast.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

So obv that GUS should be playing every game with more ice time. Said this many times.

I think they should just stay with the 11/7 deployment. It's worked wonders for Edmonton. Sheltering Gus is the perfect way to use him.

 

[HockeyMad68]

Thats 2 on Bob with what 9 shots.

 

[Zero1]

When it matters the most, Willy is the best player on the team.

 

[LastOne2100]

Seems everyone except M&M wants to keep playing hockey beyond Wednesday.

Not sure JT has done f*** all either.

$33M in the dumpster this series.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

I'd estimate that the cbc online stream is almost 10 minutes behind the live cable.

Why is that accepted? Why is that tolerated?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

I like the goal but

WHERE THE F*CK ARE OUR STARS?

I mean Nylander did just set that whole thing up.

But yeah, Tavares/Matthews/Marner is just bad. At least JT is just invisible... Marner and Matthews are actively giving this game to Florida.

 

[wingman75]

All I've seen on the offensive from Marner and Matthews are turnovers in risky areas.

One of 91, 34, 16 need to start generating some friggin goals.

 

[leafs in five]

Nylander only good Leaf

 

[PanniniClaus]

Gustafson needs more ice time. Great with the puck

Go 11 and 6... staple Holl to the bench.. cannot believe he was brought back after the Tampa series.

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Cujo was a great player

And you can be one too with proline

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Core 4 zero goals this series.

HALF the cap everybody. Half the cap.

Can't have half the cap be attributed to soft, scared players. Dubas will learn the hard way

 

[saffronleaf]

When Nylander wants to be he is a stallion with the puck. The puck is a magnet on his stick.

should be at the derby instead the way he's galloping

 

[PecnoTrunk]

It’s time for Toronto to fire Kyle Dubas (and perhaps Brendan Shanahan) and Keefe. Dubas has done nothing to show for having great players Mathews and marner and Reilly on a team. Nothing

 

[DarkKnight]

Not good Sam isn’t back.

 

[Statsman1]

If you think about it, Woll is in the perfect position to now go and win the Conn Smythe trophy……

 

[SprDaVE]

Not sure JT has done f*** all either.

$33M in the dumpster this series.

JT has been grinding and had a couple good plays with ROR. Maybe not great but solid.

I haven't noticed AM or MM in a good way since the first minute of hockey. They need to wake the f*** up. This is awful.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

meanwhile waiting for the big boys to show up...

 

[Menzinger]

Keep Gustavsson in for the rest of the series.

 

[Morgs]

Yes it's McCabe's man but the most important concept in hockey is support.. If he stays close to McCabe, as D are taught... he can possibly cover.. McCabe certainly has an obvious part of the blame but goals happen when Holl is on the ice and it's no accident..

At 5v5 sure. On the penalty kill the Leafs play 3 on the line with one defenseman (Holl) and one F (Jarny?) playing close to the wall.

McCabes job is to be on the other side of the line and stop any passes through the middle like that, or be ready to face a 1 on 1. That play is 100% on him, but also it was good on Florida exposing McCabe not being where he was supposed to be.

Blaming Holl for the goal besides being on the ice is asinine. Even the PK coach deserves more blame.

 

[BTP]

We're fine. We're good. We're winning.

Not even the combined power of Wes Mchauley and the hatred of the Hockey Gods will make us lose this game.

We're going back to T.O 2-2.
